Looking For That Little Girl

The Girl Sat Outside Today
Doing Nothing But Cry
I Was So Very Curious
So I Decided To Ask Her Why

Why Are You So Sad I Asked
She Looked Up In Fright
With So Much Pain In her Eyes
She Told Me She Was Alright

I Said "Sweetie I'm Not Blind"
The Pain In You I Can See
I Told Her Id Like To Listen
If She Would Talk To Me

After A Little While She Opened Up
And Told Me Why She Had These Tears
I Couldn't Help But Cry Myself
As She Told Me All These Fears

She Told Me How Shed Been Raped
Exactly To A Year Today
And How The Love Of Her Life
Had A Few Days Before Gone Away

I Couldn't Help But Hold Her Hand
And She Cried Out Her Little Heart
She Seemed So Pure And Innocence
Until She Had Been Torn Apart

She Told Me How She Wanted To Die
For This Past Whole Year
And Every Day She'd Woken Up
Living In This Horrible Fear

She Told Me How She Misses Her Love
And How They Were To Be Together
So Much Separates These Two Now
She Said She Lost Him forever

She Even Told Me About The Night
And All That Boy Took Away
Even Told me He Was Her Loves Best Friend
Thats Why Her Love Walked His Way

She Told Me She Sometimes Cuts
Just A Little Here And There
I Glimpsed At Her Scarred Wrists
I Just Couldn't Help But Stare

She Told Me All About Herself
And Her Loving Family Too
She Even Has A Loving Boyfriend
But They All See Right Through

She Tells Me About Her Daily Routine
And How She Has A Painted Smile
She Laughs And Giggles With Everyone
Pretending She OK All The While

Sometimes She Wakes Up Screaming
But Mostly Its The Dreams
She Never Seems To Wake Up
The Nightmare Continues To Beam

And As I Looked At This Little Girl
My Heart Was So Far Gone
She Was The Nicest Little Thing
She'd Done Nothing Wrong

And As I Sat Down Crying
I Looked Over To The Little Girl
Nothing But The Wind And Leaves
I Was In My Own Tiny Little World

I Looked For This Girl For Hours
As Far As The Eye Could See
And Then It Suddenly Hit Me
I Was Only Looking For Me...
